Imagine your friend's cousin writes a rebuttal argument to her claim in favor of teens owning smartphones. Read his argument exc

erpt and answer the question that follows: Smartphone ownership among teens is certainly on the rise. Yet there is reason for caution. Teens are showing signs of smartphone addiction. A survey by Text Plus found that half of teens "couldn't live without their mobile devices for a week, while 36 percent said they weren't able to go 10 minutes without checking their phones." All this time on the devices creates more chances for problems. Smartphones and social media have been linked to serious cases of cyber bullying. Some students have been hurt or worse. A school superintendent in California, J. Thomas Morton, sent a letter to parents. He asked them to monitor their teens' use of all electronic devices, as cyber bullying incidents are on the rise. Which of the following is true about this argument excerpt?

Please write a 3 stanza poem about the corona virus
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

It came all of a sudden

like the night wind that chatches the dreamer unawares

people formed stories about the cause

no one really knowing how

It broke down the nation's economy

every one looking for hope

wealth didn't mean anything anymore

'could this be the end?' they thought

no one could find the cure

no one could try to build up a vaccine

it came with one purpose

to destroy us all

Which excerpt highlights the theme of the fleeting nature of life? ​
hoa [83]

The correct answer is:

But at my back I always hear

Time's winged chariot hurrying near;

And yonder all before us lie

Deserts of vast eternity.

(Andrew Marvell, “To His Coy Mistress”)

These lines highlight the fleeting nature of life. The author argues that he can hear the "winged chariot" of time, meaning he can feel time passing, and "hurrying near." He knows that before us, there lies a desert of eternity. This is likely to refer to death. He believes that death is fast approaching, and that after death, lies an eternity.
